One of the best games I’ve played
$25
$25 for a mobile game has to be a joke right? Love the game but maybe $5
Good game but too expensive
Game is actually fun and can be addicting. If you think the base game is worth $35 you’re out of line though. AAA games are $70 and this is not anywhere near a AAA game. I woulda bought it if it was more reasonably priced but for me it’s a no.
Meh
If you want to waste time collecting resources to endlessly buy stuff to upgrade and try and figure out the upgrade puzzle in order to make the game interesting, then this is the game for you. And if you like an all female cast (with a few guys thrown in to “be fair”) you’ll absolutely love this. I never knew fishing and fishing towns were all girls.
Decent game but pricy
It’s a decent game, it nails the “Cosy during day, something’s clearly wrong during Night” and nothing beats the “One more fish” at night and dying to your own greed but it can repetitive and a little luck based. And even though the game is fun to play usually and I love the art style, it’s just too expensive for what it is.
这游戏有BUG
使用妙控键盘游戏的时候,船只一转弯就会停止前进,必须要重新按W
I’m sick of buying games for them to become part of Apple Arcade.
They keep be adding games to arcade after I’ve paid full price for them I don’t mind paying for the game the game was great but when it’s gonna be added to Apple Arcade a month later. I want my money back cause I get the stupid arcade as part of my cellular service as a perk and I sat here paying for this game a month before it became free
Fun but pricey
The game seems fun. Have to grind a bit but story is interesting. Other platforms like steam are cheaper. The $25 price tag is a bit high for an old game. I heard at release it was like $10. I’d pay that but not $25 for a 3 year old game.
Unreadable text
I’ve heard the games great but it desperately needs UI scaling. It’s impossible to read anything on a phone.
Great game - but VERY EXPENSIVE!!!
It’s a bit much to pay for the content delivered. That said, the content is deep, immersive, and it is a pleasure to play… you just pay through the nose for it.
Amazing!
Literally spent an entire day on this game without feeling the passage of time. Great artwork, music, atmosphere and also solid storyline. A must-have!
Payjng Double
Why am I paying for an Apple Arcade subscription if you’re going to then charge me for the game? Ridiculous. Have been thinking of canceling Apple arcade altogether. Nonsense.
Fun but…
The game is great have been playing it for hours but sometimes you grind and grind to buy something from the shipwrite just for it and your money to disappear and it does get annoying that you have to go grind once again for something. Maybe add a backup for that so if I buy something and it disappears for some reason it automatically goes to your storage.
Great game too short of story
I paid the 30$ for the game and it's a really good game I just wish the locations were closer and there was more to the game it didn't take me very long to complete the story and that was disappointing
After a while its a boring grind
I ran out of patience with the grinding long before I ever finished the story. It might have been interesting if I had the patience to stick with it, but I didn’t. If you go for it, be prepared for a lot of repetition.
love it
I loooooove it! All the mystories are so much fun to solve. And ts just the right amount of spooky
Kicks me out at the initial load screen.
Per title, can't get Past the initial load screen.
Likable but lacking??
The game has components that made it very enjoyable, however it lacked in some aspects. I enjoyed the relatively tolerable grinding for assets/supplies as well as the upgrades. What I felt wanting however was more plot, not to spoil the end but it was rather abrupt and a bit of a downer, especially after you seem to have found a way to correct the situation. Other NPCs I felt could have added more to the enjoyment of the game, at least explain what was going on with the seafloor or the creatures that appeared..Not to say I havent played through twice, as I still find it enjoyable, but I still wanted more substance.
Too Expensive
Game isn’t bad, not amazing but equally, has potential to be enjoyable BUT not for £25.00! Under £10 and I’d have given it a go but for £25, it was an easy pass. Thanks but not thanks; far too much for a glorified fishing game with some ‘spooky’ elements thrown in.
$25 for inventory management software?
A bit steep for a lot of tapping and “rotating”. Should be auto. Like me paying my boss to work for him
Almost perfect!
I loved everything about this game. The only thing I would like different is if there was not just a good and bad ending. It would be great if you guys made a third/fourth ending that is even more secret where you end up surviving. Thank you.
What….. no zero stars?
The documentation for this game is absolutely TERRIBLE…. you are thrown into the game with no direction as to how to do anything. The controls are only marginally responsive if you care enough to spend the time necessary to figure out what they are. I have been gaming for many years and have never experienced a game this poorly conceived. I like to play games for enjoyment and relaxation; all I got from this abortion is frustration. SMH…… YIKES
Fun, tedious, half-baked
Overall it’s a good concept for a game, but feels undercooked in development. Like they ran out of ideas, time, money, or some combination of the sort. Fishing element of the game was fun but I expected it to get progressively harder or require different skills, etc. None of that. Inventory management on the boat was an acceptable element but somewhat tedious as another reviewer commented. Having to get the boat back in at midnight was a fine concept but the time mechanic moved too fast so it was annoying in execution. Storyline had a whole lot of potential but it just never followed thru. Giving it a charitable 4 start but it’s really a 3.5 from me.
Expensive
Not worth £25
Fun but not worth the price.
Enjoyable gameplay. Nice graphics. Finished in a weekend. Not worth the price for the amount of gameplay. Not going to spend more money for add-ons.
Pricy
Want to buy but at lower cost liked it at $12
Free, my tush
$25 in app to play the game lol. These sneaky paid games are a joke
Sooooo good game!
What I didn’t like about this game is that I played a little and then it needed pro version (which you have to pay), but other than that I find it soo relaxing, fun and also the grafics are fire!
Full game
I am not paying 34.99 + tax for this game just for the base game 💀💀
Good, but overpriced
It’s fun, a bit grindy, but a generally peaceful experience. But this is not a AA game with a long storyline… under $10 would be far more appropriate. Feeling taken advantage of here.
It’s fun, but read my review
SC SC SC SCAM totally really fun game too much money though
Price and bug
I try the free trial and every time I try to get through the intro scene it kicks me out every single time
Great but lots of Bugs
It’s a greatly made game for the Mac. The make and feel is unique. Im having issues with the storage and cargo in the game. When full and aquiring something new, I can’t click to discard something else with this huge key I found. Another thing is there is NO Middle click button on MAC!!! lol I don’t have a middle button option. Great game.
£25 is insane!!
Game is ok but is buggy and lags on my iPhone max. And I’m sorry but charging £25 for an IOS game is just crazy!! I’m sorry, but it’s not worth that much!
Great Game, Too Expensive
This is a great game and I really want to get to the other areas, but $25 is just way too expensive. $10 to even $15 would suite an iOS game of this caliber
Best customer service ever
I couldn’t get it to move along in the storyline but bought it anyway because it intrigued me. I connected the developer and he got back to me and got me on my way, a real person! About the game; it’s the most engaging game I have played in years. The environment is wondrous. I can hope they keep expanding it.
My thought
loved playing this game on my computer, I would love to play on mobile but 25$ for mobile is outrageous I would of thought at least buying it if the price was lower then 10$
Great game, big price
This is one of the best games I’ve ever played on my iPad but I’m not sure it’s worth the full purchase price. Definitely happy I downloaded it - I’ve completed the base game. Very good graphics and glitch free play. Wonderful story. But $25. That’s a lot for a mobile game.
Crashes/stutters
As titled, the game stutters a lot, performance wise there is constant freezes, especially while fishing and I’ve had it crash multiple times for no apparent reasons. Shame as when it does work, it’s a good game.
Please let Dredge open while in Lockdown Mode
I was really excited to play Dredge, but unfortunately the game doesn’t open while using Apple’s Lockdown Mode. Since I always keep my iPhone in Lockdown for security, I can’t access the game at all. Please make the game compatible with Lockdown Mode — I would gladly purchase it as soon as this is fixed.
Great Game
One of the best games out there
Not free
Not free
Nice Game
I liked this game a lot! I played on a iMac and macbook and once I changed the controls on the macbook its was more intuitive. Pluses: nice graphics and interactions, fun and exciting, not difficult to acheive most tasks and loved the way you can improve your boat. Minuses: I finished the entire game in two days ( a bummer). The improvement tree should be more expansive. So if you like a game paced at your speed and attention span this is the game for you. Warning the initital download is free but limited. The pay version is $9.99 which I thought was very fair.
Slightly enjoyable to a point
The graphics are great and the story is interesting, I’m curious to know more, the game itself is ok but I think it was the story that kept me playing. My issue is with the cost. While it’s on special offer it’s £11.99. I mean I’m never paying that for a mobile game, even Monument Valley is cheaper than this price, but no chance I’d pay almost £12 for it, and once that special offer is gone- Ooft! Sorry, but the price killed this game for me.
Amazing game but.
Was a outstanding game played for a while on vacation when not on the beach. Only problem is, is after a while you have to pay.
So fun
Actually the best mobile game I have ever played. It works so well on iPad with the bigger screen.
Not free
Actually $25 but they don’t tell you that when you download it
Worth the (discounted) price…
I’m happy I only picked this up for $10, it’s a fine 4-star game. I was attracted to the game because it won Apple’s iPad Game of the Year. I played the demo and was very much on the fence, it seemed like more of a grind than anything else. I bit the bullet and played until completion. There’s a bit more inventory management than I care for, the storyline is okay but the real untapped potential was in the individual locations. I won’t be buying any DLC. I’m kinda happy to put this one behind me.
Should have been cheaper
The demo didn’t particularly draw me into buying the game at all..
it’s so good but why is it 17.99
it’s such a good game why pay 17.99 for the full game. Bro it’s so expensive. 🤾🤾🤾🤾🤾🤾🤾
